060: Crystal Palace draws a lottery ticket

The draw ceremony for the top 32 groups of the 2016-2017 UEFA Champions League officially began. Under the introduction of the emcee on the stage and accompanied by the exciting theme song of "Champions League", Ian Rush, the image ambassador of this season's UEFA Champions League, held the European The Big Ears Cup, the Champions League championship trophy, walked into the venue and then handed the championship trophy to the UEFA president. Infantino. Then, Infantino placed it on the main. On the championship trophy table in the center of the stage!

This big ear cup is really a big ear cup!

The Honor Room of the Crystal Palace Huadu Yida Football Training Base displays a replica with the name of the Crystal Palace Football Club and the year it won the championship engraved on it.

Then Ian Rush did not leave, but had him announce the best goalkeeper award for the 2015-2016 UEFA Champions League season.

Currently shortlisted are Crystal Palace's Alisson, Real Madrid's Navas and Atletico Madrid's Oblak.

Ian Rush solemnly announced, "The winner of the 2015-2016 UEFA Champions League Best Goalkeeper is Alisson Becker, from Crystal Palace Football Club!"

Sure enough, not surprisingly, Alisson won an award.

Alisson also came to the scene today, and several Crystal Palace players also came to the scene.

After all, among the Crystal Palace players, Alisson is not the only one who has the chance to win the award.

After Alisson and Tong Yi hugged, they excitedly went on stage to receive the award and took a group photo.

During this time, Alisson's highlights from last season's game were also played on the big screen.

Alisson was very happy to receive this award and thanked Tong Yi excitedly, "Thank you to my parents, and even more thank you to my boss, Mr. Tong Yi. If he hadn't valued me and brought me from Brazil to Europe, there would be no success." He made me what I am today! Thank you very much to him!"

Bang bang bang!

The scene was filled with thunderous applause.

Alisson then went off, along with Ian Rush.

Then Infantino came to the lottery table under the introduction of the on-site emcee. He was responsible for drawing the group of the team, and the lottery guests were responsible for drawing the teams in each group.

The master of ceremonies at the scene introduced that the person in charge of the first draw of the 2016-2017 UEFA Champions League group was Dutch football superstar Seedorf. Then, Seedorf took the stage amidst the passionate music and came to the draw for the first-tier teams.

However, the first thing he did when he came to the stage was not to draw lots, but to announce the award for the best defender in the 2015-2016 UEFA Champions League.

There is almost no suspense about this award. Sure enough, Seedorf directly announced, "The winner of the 2015-2016 UEFA Champions League Defender of the Season is - Virgil Van Dijk, from Crystal Palace Football Club!"

Seedorf's face was also full of smiles, after all, the winner was his compatriot.

Van Dijk's performance last season was indeed amazing, and he was the number one contributor to Crystal Palace's championship.

Highlights of Van Dijk's outstanding performance last season were also played at the scene. Then Van Dijk and Tong Yi came on stage after hugging and said a lot of similar remarks to Alisson. Obviously Tong Yi's name was mentioned again, and even Van Dijk claimed Tong Yi is just like his elder brother and father, he is his guide in life. He is very grateful to Tong Yi.

There was a huge uproar at the scene. It seems that it will be difficult for anyone to poach Van Dijk in the future. Unless something like that happens between these two people

In 2016, Beckham and Ferguson had the same flying shoe incident.

Tong Yi gave the applause to Van Dijk.

Then there is the first level draw. The first level draw is really unattractive. Anyway, it is to draw the teams from the first level and then place them into 8 groups respectively, which is equivalent to ranking. The seats are the same.

So, the process is quick.

Everyone is also very relaxed.

Crystal Palace was the second to be drawn, and they were drawn into Group G by Infantino.

The first-tier draw ended soon, and everyone had arranged their seats. The next step is to draw lots for the second level. The drawing of lots for each subsequent level is very critical. It is impossible to say that the group of death was born just like this.

The second draw guest to take the stage was Arsenal's former French superstar Thierry Henry.

When he came on stage, the first thing he did was announce an award.

Henry smiled and said, "The winner of the 2015-2016 UEFA Champions League Best Midfielder is Kevin De Bruyne, from Crystal Palace Football Club!"

Sure enough, as predicted by the outside world, the best player in the Champions League last season was likely to be taken by the Crystal Palace people.

This seems to be the case so far.

De Bruyne also hugged Tong Yi, and then went on stage to thank Tong Yi. The famous coaches and media reporters at the scene almost had calluses on their ears. Why did everyone who went up have to thank Tong Yi?

Then the second draw began, and Tong Yi couldn't help but become serious.

Then, the first one to be drawn was Porto, and Infantino took him out of Group G where Crystal Palace was located.

Seeing this, Tong Yi is still very happy. Relatively speaking, among the second-tier teams, Porto is considered a soft persimmon and a relatively easy opponent, so Tong Yi is very satisfied with this draw.

At least so far, very satisfied.

If this kind of luck can continue in the future, there is no telling that Crystal Palace will draw one this time.

Tong Yi is full of expectations.

Tong Yi is not particularly concerned about the draw of other teams in the second tier. His mind has been set aside for winning in the third tier. Tong Yi hopes to find someone easy to deal with among the teams in the third tier. Teams, preferably teams like Basel, Dynamo Kiev and Club Brugge, forget about the others.

Soon, the draw for the second level ended.

Ruud van Nistelrooy, who was the guest of the third-tier team draw, took the stage.

Then, as usual, Ruud van Nistelrooy immediately announced, "The winner of the 2015-2016 UEFA Champions League Best Forward is - Cristiano Ronaldo, from Real Madrid!"

Finally not a player from Crystal Palace.

To be honest, this is beyond some people's expectations. After all, Balotelli, Salah and Mane of Crystal Palace all performed well last season. Especially Balotelli, who scored 10 goals last season and ranked second in the Champions League scorer list. He also scored twice in the Champions League final and even scored the winning goal. Many people think Balotelli is Li Hui won the award, who knew he actually

However, I didn’t get this award.

The best forward was given to Cristiano Ronaldo of Real Madrid. Although Real Madrid did not reach the Champions League final, Ronaldo was the top scorer in the Champions League last season. He scored 12 goals. Perhaps it is because of this that he received this award.

After Cristiano Ronaldo took the stage, he was very cool and his speech was very brief.

Then, the draw for the third level began.

To be honest, the draw was really tense at this time. All the coaches in the audience were very nervous.

Among the third-tier teams, there are tough opponents such as Tottenham Hotspur, Lyon, PSV Eindhoven, Sporting Lisbon and Monchengladbach. Many teams do not want to draw these goals. Team, Tong Yi is the same.

If these teams are drawn, it is very likely that they will be in the group of death!

The Crystal Palace fans in front of the TV are also praying that these teams will not be drawn.

The first team to be drawn was Lyon, and then they were drawn into Group H by Infantino. Then Sporting Lisbon, Dynamo Kiev and other teams were drawn out. To be honest, Tong Yi really wanted to be drawn out. The winner was Dynamo Kyiv, but unfortunately he didn't get what he wanted. Dynamo Kyiv was drawn into Group B.

The third team to be drawn, the Belgian giant Bruges, was drawn into Group G by Infantino and entered the Crystal Palace group. .??.

Seeing this, Tong Yi's nervousness immediately dissipated.

The result of this draw is very good. For Crystal Palace, the draw is already successful. It just depends on who will be drawn in the last bracket?

The current teams in Group G of Crystal Palace include Porto and Club Brugge. Although these two teams have some reputations, some people think that although they are not very strong, they are still durable. However, for Tong Yi, these two opponents are relatively easy to deal with, and they are both ranked low among teams of their own level. This pick is already very good.

So far, Tong Yi is very satisfied.

There are two teams worth noting in the fourth tier, that is Celtic from the Scottish Premiership and Monaco from Ligue 1. These two teams cannot be drawn. Once they are drawn, they will be finished. Yeah, these two teams are the key to the death group.

Although the current draw results for the Crystal Palace group look pretty good, it will be hard to say if a Celtic or Monaco is drawn!

Therefore, Tong Yi is generally unwilling to draw these two teams, and other teams are easy to say.

Then, the famous star Roberto Carlos from Brazil took the stage as the fourth-level draw guest. Banquet.

The first thing Carlos did was to announce the award. He solemnly announced, "The winner of the 2015-2016 UEFA Champions League Player of the Season is - Kevin De Bruyne, from Crystal Palace Football Club!"

De Bruyne won his second award today. Of course, this is also the most important award.

Tong Yi and De Bruyne were both relatively excited. They hugged tightly, and then De Bruyne took the stage again and delivered his acceptance speech.

De Bruyne took a deep breath and said, "Thank you very much to UEFA, thank you to the fans, for awarding this award to me. Thank you very much! The reason why I was able to win this award is entirely due to my boss Tong." First

Because of his contribution to life, if it weren’t for him, it would be impossible for me to still be in a corner of Belgium now. It was he who dug me out of Belgium when I was very young and brought me to Munich 1860 in Germany. Here I became the core of the team and the key training target of the club. If it weren’t for Mr. Tong Yi’s devoted If I had tried my best to cultivate him, I would never be where I am today. Thank you to him and my boss! Boss, please rest assured that I will definitely go all out in the next competition. This is not our end. We still have a lot of honors to win together. Please believe me! "

The faces of the coaches from the wealthy clubs at the scene changed, especially those who coveted De Bruyne.

De Bruyne's speech is simply a declaration of allegiance!

What do you mean there are still many honors, let’s go get them together?

Doesn't this show loyalty and mean that he will not leave Crystal Palace?

Well, De Bruyne is also dead in the Crystal Palace and will not go anywhere. It is almost impossible for the Crystal Palace to collapse. It seems that Crystal Palace has really risen and become a deadly wealthy club in England and even the world!

Many people sighed, and did not forget to severely criticize Tong Yi or two.

Why the hell is this guy so good at winning people over?

So many outstanding players don't want to leave him. This guy Tong Yi really has something.

Then, the draw in the fourth tier started immediately. The first one to be drawn was the Danish giant Copenhagen, and then Infantino directly drew him into Group G!

Tong Yi was a little confused. Is our luck really that good? Did you just draw the most ideal opponent?

Then aren't we signing on?

Tong Yi was very satisfied. He was very happy with the result of the lottery and could accept it.

Although this is not the easiest group, there is really no problem in qualifying from this group.

If Wenger and others knew what Tong Yi was thinking now, their saliva would drown Tong Yi. You Chinese soft-boiled men don't want to take advantage and act like a good boy. This group of yours is the easiest one.
